On all BMWs produced from 2002 onwards, it is necessary to register the battery after installing a new one. After registration, the system can more accurately monitor the battery's health status, providing timely alerts to the user in case of problems.

Furthermore, incorrect or missing registration can cause malfunctions in the electrical system, such as intermittent start-ups, a non-functioning radio, windows that do not open, and so on. Therefore, let's register on a website like bimmer-tech.net at a fraction of the cost we would spend by registering at a dealership, and a technician will help you through the process.

Alternatively, you can do it using a diagnostic tool and a dedicated app that will guide you through the process.

Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
